Tang Seng is a cook

Zhuang Fan led his apprentices all the way to ride westward. It was midsummer at this time, the summer heat had dissipated at night, the moon was shining in the sky, the stars were full of stars, and everything was silent. It was a special feeling to drive.

Fortunately, the master and the disciples were all lively and cheerful, chatting and laughing, but they didn't look lonely, even Wu Wang, Zhuang Fan didn't stick to him anymore, so Bai Longma also got involved in the bickering between the brothers and sisters. It looks more peaceful.

Sure enough, what Guanyin said was right, the master and apprentice saw the shadow of a prefecture in the distance in the early hours of the second night.

Wukong was exploring the way ahead, he ran back at this time, took the reins, and said to Zhuang Fan: "Master, look, there should be the Jinping Mansion ahead!"

Zhuang Fan nodded, put away his Zen staff, jumped off the horse, patted Wuwang, and told him to return to human form, saying: "Let's find a quiet place, stay for a day, rest, and go straight across the city at night, so we won't go in. feasible?"

Just after they came out of Yuhua State, several apprentices were haunted by the father and son of Yuhua King, and besides, there was no shortage of food and clothing at this time, and they didn't have much attraction to go to the city, so naturally they all listened to their master.

So Wukong went to find a secluded place again, Zhuang Fan took his disciples there, released the wooden house, took the caramel cake to the stable, the children went to wash themselves, Zhuang Fan woke up the little lion Rhubarb, and told it to find a place to boo Shh go.

Rhubarb ate and slept for the past two days, and when it woke up, Zhuang Fan would take a rest and take the lion cub to run on the grass and have fun.

Wukong will also find some small rabbits, foxes, wild pheasants and other live animals, and ask Rhubarb to practice hunting, but this guy seems to have been bullied by his brothers, and he is always afraid to do it. Earlier today, he was so anxious The rabbit turned around and chased away, which made Zhuang Fan dumbfounded.

I was frightened earlier, but now Rhubarb doesn’t dare to go far away, the little thing sneaks a look at Zhuang Fan, sees him staring into the distance in a daze, not noticing himself, so he sneaks to the side of the house, sticks Leaning against the wall, he boldly went to the toilet.

Unexpectedly, the little lion chose the wrong place and bumped into the caramel cake.

After driving all night, Caramel Cake was squinting his eyes, not taking a bite, chewing and eating the horse food slowly, and he heard the sound of water rushing under his feet, the brown wild horse Stop chewing, poke your head out quietly: a little yellow bastard is defecating at the base of its stable wall!

Tolerable or unbearable!

Caramel Cake yelled loudly at the top of his voice, frightened the little villain who was doing bad things, and rushed out after a while, and threw himself into Zhuang Fan's arms a few times, shaking his head like a cat.

Zhuang Fan, who was innocently covered in tiger urine: ...

Zhuang Fanben was there, looking at Jinping's mansion from a distance, thinking whether he should take those three rhinoceros spirits and solve the disaster in Jinping's mansion this year. Suddenly, a little lion in shock came up from below, Zhuang Fan, who was cold all the way from his calf to his stomach, was carrying the urinating little bastard. The two of them looked at each other. The little lion also knew that he had made a mistake, so he whined softly, and shyly covered his face with his paw. up.

It's useless to be cute!

The caramel cake, which was recovering proudly in the stable, was trained together with rhubarb!

Zhuang Fan was thinking of cooking later, but this time it didn't work out. After the children came out of the bath, he went in with the little lion in his arms, washed the little bastard, and dried it carefully. Let it out of the bathroom, pat it, tell it to play in the living room, wash it well, change your clothes before coming out.

Zhuang Fan turned a corner and entered the kitchen, and found that Bajie had already steamed the rice, cut the vegetables, and was about to fry them, so he said, "Fatty, make it for the master, why don't you go and play for the brothers?"

Bajie quickly shook his head and said, "Master, just let me fry it, and I'll see if I can cook other dishes."

Xiaopang smiled and said: "After all, I still miss being the master chef of the restaurant!"

Zhuang Fan smiled and said: "That's fine, you fry it, and Master will help you watch the fire!"

Bajie groaned and said: "Master, I can just come by myself, you watch from the side, I am nervous."

Zhuang Fan laughed and said, "Okay, okay, Master doesn't want to watch, then you do it slowly, be careful not to let the hot oil jump on your face."

Bajie held up the shovel, pushed the master's back with both hands, and drove him out of the kitchen, and locked the door carefully.

Zhuang Fan couldn't help laughing, shook his head, and went to the living room to wait for the ready-made one.

In the living room, Wuyou was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, grabbing the hydrangea with Dahuang, both sides tried their best to suck up the milk, when Dahuang saw Zhuang Fan coming, he let go and rushed towards Zhuang Fan, Wuyou didn't pay attention, and Gulu made a somersault.

Zhuang Fan reluctantly picked up the clingy little lion, walked over to see his little son, and felt relieved when he saw that he was not hurt.

Wu You shrugged at the little lion in his father's arms, and said, "Laipi, if you can't grab it, go and act like a spoiled child."

Da Huang pretended not to understand, shrank into Zhuang Fan's arms, squinted his eyes and dozed off, Zhuang Fan stroked his belly, and asked, "Did the little one drink milk?"

Wuyou said: "Drink it, I just fed it, I drank two big bottles, it's more than yesterday."

Zhuang Fan nodded, and went to sleep with the little lion, but he turned his head and didn't see Wukong and Wuwang, so he asked, "Where are your senior and second senior brothers?"

Wu You faltered and said: "Maybe it's in the bedroom?"

Zhuang Fan was surprised, and said: "But you are tired on the way?" He wanted to get up and have a look.

Unexpectedly, Wuyou quickly grabbed him and said, "Ah, no, no, I'm not in the bedroom, I think I went out."

Zhuang Fan looked at the sky, it was about to dawn, and asked strangely: "What are you doing out? It's time to go to bed after dinner, why did you go out this time?"

Wuyou scratched his head, but couldn't answer, so he simply jumped off the sofa, put on his shoes and wanted to run to the kitchen, and said, "Daddy, I'll go to the kitchen to see Third Senior Brother, won't he burn the dishes?"

Zhuang Fan felt that something was wrong, grabbed his youngest son, pulled Wu You over, told him to stand by himself, nodded his chubby nose, and said very seriously: "Be honest, why are you going to go, senior brother and second senior brother?" gone?"

Wuyou lowered his head, tugged at the hem of his clothes, and muttered, "Father, I can't be a little traitor. The elder brother said that there is no infighting between us brothers!"

Zhuang Fan laughed angrily, and said, "Is Daddy an outsider? You traitor!"

Wuyou raised his head, opened his eyes wide, and said with a wow: "Daddy, you speak dirty words!"

Zhuang Fan snorted coldly, smacked his head, and said: "Be honest, why did they go? If you don't report the knowledge, your father and I will not only swear, but also cook fried pork with bamboo shoots." !"

Wu You covered his mouth, looked at Zhuang Fan with watery eyes, squeezed his eyes, and tried to squeeze out a few tears, but nothing came out.

Zhuang Fan was annoyed and funny, so he had to say: "Let's do it, let's nod yes, shake your head no, if Daddy is right, you just nod, if you are wrong, you shake your head, okay? That way you don't say a word, It’s not considered a traitor, is it possible?”

Wuyou covered her mouth tightly with her hand, grunted twice with her big eyes, and nodded.

Zhuang Fan's mind was moved, and he said: "Did your senior brother and second senior brother go to Xuanying Cave in Qinglong Mountain in the northeast?"

Wuyou opened his eyes even wider in surprise, Zhuang Fan took a look and said, "Okay, you don't need to nod or shake your head, daddy knows!"

Wuyou put down his hands and groaned, "Daddy, I really didn't say anything. Senior brother is back, you can't talk nonsense!"

Zhuang Fan said: "Okay, we Wuyou are mighty and unyielding, but we are first-class loyal ministers and heroes, okay?"

Wuyou giggled, very pleased with herself.

Zhuang Fan thought for a while, and said: "You two senior brothers are not the ones who are enthusiastic about eliminating harm for the people, why did you take the initiative to eliminate the demon this time?"

Wuyou pursed his lips and pretended to be dead again.

Zhuang Fan said helplessly, "Can't you say that?"

Wuyou nodded solemnly, meaning, yes, this can't be said either!

Zhuang Fan smiled, and said: "If you don't tell me, Dad will know, is it because your second senior brother is thinking about those three rhino horns, and your senior senior brother said to get them for him?"

Wuyou widened his eyes again in surprise.

Zhuang Fan laughed and said, "Little devil!"

Wu You pursed his lips and said, "Father, if I were a little devil, what would you be?"

Zhuang Fan picked up the little fat man, told him to sit beside him, and said, "Daddy is a cunning man!"

Wuyou giggled, and said, "Who would say that about himself?"

Zhuang Fan pushed his chin against Wuyou's head, and said, "The big cunning and the little devil, shouldn't they be father and son?"

Wuyou laughed grinningly.

After a while, the little fat man asked anxiously: "Master, will you criticize the senior brother and the second senior brother when they come back?"

Zhuang Fanqi asked, "Why criticize them?"

Wuyou said, "After all, they went to catch the rhino behind your back."

Zhuang Fan said: "Well, I didn't tell me this, and I still have to be trained when I come back, but catching a rhino is a good thing, so the merits and demerits are equal, let's forget it."

Wuyou burst out laughing, and said, "That is to say, if the senior brother told the second senior brother and daddy that they were going to catch rhinos, daddy wouldn't stop them?"

Zhuang Fan said: "No, your senior brother and second senior brother are very capable, and the rhinoceros spirit can't help them. Even if there is any mistake, your senior brother can still figure out a way. Besides, the rhinoceros spirit makes trouble in the local area, which is considered a disaster. , since they want to go, why is dad stopping them?"

Wuyou gloated and said, "If the brothers know that they will tell their father before they go, and they will be praised when they come back, I'm sure you'll regret it to death!"

Zhuang Fan rubbed the little fat man and said: "So what Wuyou is going to do in the future, and if he has any decision, he should tell his father. If his father is not here, he will tell the master, okay?"

Wuyou wondered, "Do you want to keep doing this?"

Zhuang Fan said: "How could it be, when you become masters and you can take care of apprentices yourself, then father and master will go backwards and can no longer dictate your life. Because at that time, you will be adults, my lords." Everyone has their own life plan, others can have suggestions, but they cannot replace you, to make decisions for your life."

Wuyou let out an oh-so-comprehensive voice, leaned into his father's arms and stopped talking.

Zhuang Fan put his arms around his youngest son, and saw that it was bright outside, he lowered his head and asked, "Did the elder brother and the second elder brother say when they will come back?"

Wu You shook his head and said, "They only said to get the horn and they will return soon."

Zhuang Fan frowned, thinking that it might not be soon, these three rhinoceros have lived for more than a thousand years, after all, it was Wukong who begged the Kuimu wolves and drove them all the way to the West Sea to catch the three rhinoceros That's right, now only Wukong and Wu forget to go, if they don't keep it together, they will have to fight for a long time.

Sure enough, Zhuang Fan guessed it. The two seniors did not rush back until after noon. Bajie and Wuyou had eaten, and they had already hugged Rhubarb and went back to the bedroom to sleep. Only Zhuang Fan pulled him away. Curtains, in the dark living room, reclined on the sofa, waiting for them while dozing.

As soon as Wukong and Wuwang entered the door, they brought in a smell of wet, salty sea air. Wuwang saw the master at a glance, and hid behind the senior brother, pushed Wukong, told him to go up and talk to the master, Wukong scratched his head, Being pushed by the junior brother to walk a few steps, he smiled flatteringly at the master.

Zhuang Fan looked at the two monkeys, shook his head, and said, "Have you ever been injured?"

Wukong quickly shook his head and said, "No way!"

Zhuang Fan asked again, "Where is Wu Wang?"

Wu Wang poked out a blue bald head from behind the elder brother, shook his head, and whispered, "Master, I'm not hurt either."

Only then did Zhuang Fan breathe a sigh of relief, and said: "Go take a bath, there is food in the kitchen, eat before going to bed, wake up, and tell Master, go."

He stood up and shook his head, sighed, and went back to the bedroom with his hands behind his back.

Wu Wang looked at the elder brother, and Wukong looked down at the younger brother. The two monkeys went to the bathroom dejectedly, took a good bath, ran to the kitchen to eat hungrily, then tiptoed back to the bedroom, groped into the quilt quietly, I closed my eyes, originally I had many things on my mind, and I was very excited, but I just lay down, smelled the familiar breath, and listened to the breathing of my junior brother and master, but felt extremely at ease, tiredness flooded in like a tide, within two or three seconds , They all fell into a deep sleep.

In the bedroom, Zhuang Fan's bed is in the middle, next to Wuyou on the left, and Wuwang on the right, and the beds of Bajie and Wukong are against the wall respectively.

Hearing the children's breathing became heavy, Zhuang Fan got up quietly, came to the right, first looked at Wuwang, felt his pulse, and then looked under the little gown, and seeing that he was not injured, he went to look at Wukong again until he confirmed the two The child breathed long and steadily, and was safe and sound, so he quietly went back to his bed and slept peacefully.

On this day, the cabin was hidden in a secluded place deep in the mountains, where neither birds nor animals came, and the master and apprentice slept peacefully for the whole day, until it was dark and it was time to change the watch.

Rhubarb woke up, and the cub was hugged by Wu You, and slept for a long time. When he woke up, he only felt hungry, but just after waking up, the whole lion was still a little dazed, sitting there upright, He yawned a lot, his yellow eyes were watery, and he looked very aggrieved.

It’s just that Rhubarb looked to the left, but there was no one, and when he looked to the right, there was no one, and he scratched his bed twice, but there was no one, so the little lion became angry: How could he forget Rhubarb!Rhubarb is hungry!

Unable to hold back, he raised his head and began to cry.

Just at this moment, the bedroom door opened, Wuyou rushed in, ran over, picked up Rhubarb, and rushed out again, closed the bedroom door, hugged the little lion, tapped its little nose, and said, "Aww What, you sleepy ghost, the senior brother and the second senior brother are so tired that they are sleeping, wake them up, be careful of fried pork with bamboo shoots!"

Rhubarb couldn't understand, so he groaned, came to bite Wuyou's finger, and took a sharp bite.

Wuyou shook his head and said, "You little glutton, what can you eat with this!"

Go to the sofa, put down the rhubarb, and give the little lion hot milk to drink without any complaints.

Zhuang Fan came out with the food, and said, "Rhubarb woke up? When the feeding is over, remember to take him to the toilet, and walk a little farther away, or Caramel Cake will get angry again."

Wu You obediently agreed: "I know Daddy!"

Bajie brought out the last two dishes, wiped his hands, and said, "Master, do you want senior brother and second senior brother to eat?"

Zhuang Fan said: "I'll go and have a look."

Just as he was talking, the bedroom door rang, and the monkey and the little white dragon came out one after the other, rubbing their eyes and yawning. They sniffed and said, "It smells so good!"

"So hungry!"

Bajie whispered to Zhuang Fan: "Master, I think the senior brother and the second senior brother must have come out on time!"

Zhuang Fan laughed and said: "I see it too." Nai said: "Go and wash your face, I'll wait for you two!"

Wukong and Wuwang smiled embarrassedly, and ran to the bathroom to wash their faces.

Wuyou just happened to feed the rhubarb too, and said, "Daddy, I'll go for a walk with the rhubarb, and I'll be back in a while, don't wait for me, eat first."

Zhuang Fan said: "Go, your big brother and the others have to dawdle for a while, don't worry!"

Wu You agreed, and ran out with Rhubarb.

The two dawdled outside for a long time, because Rhubarb just didn't want to go far, and only looked for the place under Caramel Cake's feet, which made Caramel Cake almost come out and kick that bastard furball.

In the end, Wuyou coaxed Rhubarb so much, and went to other places to pee, and that was the end of the matter.

Sure enough, when Wuyou and Dahuang came back, Wukong and Wuwang hadn't finished their work yet, Zhuang Fan said: "Wuyou, go wash your hands, and take your two senior brothers out of the water by the way."

Wuyou giggled and ran to the bathroom, but Zhuang Fan and Bajie were in the living room when they heard a scream in the bathroom, and soon there was no movement again, Zhuang Fan and Bajie looked at each other, Zhuang Fan got up and walked over Knock on the bathroom door and say, "What's the matter? What happened?"

Wu Wang smiled and said, "Master, it's okay, the floor slipped just now, and the junior brother almost fell, so the senior brother helped him!"

Wuyou also said inside: "Yes, Daddy, it's okay, we'll go out, and we'll be fine soon!"

Zhuang Fan shook his head helplessly, and had no choice but to say: "Hurry up, the dishes are getting cold, don't play with the water."

The three monkeys agreed in unison, and then Zhuang Fan walked away when he heard the sound of water splashing inside.

In the bathroom, Wuyou looked at the three pearl-embedded rhinoceros horns on Wuwang's back, shining brilliantly under the dim oil lamp, opened his mouth in surprise, and whispered, "Brother, how did you do that?" , this is too gorgeous!"

Wu Wang raised his arms, made a pose, turned his back sideways, asked Wu You to take a closer look, and said triumphantly, "Is he handsome?"

Wu You scratched his head and said, "Brother, you are handsome, and this rhinoceros horn is also pretty, but this combination, tsk tsk..."

The monkeys beside him squatted on the ground laughing so hard that they couldn't get up, Wu Wangqi hummed: "You don't even know how to appreciate beauty!"

In the end, the master was urging him outside, so Wuwang asked Wukong to take down the three rhino horns for him, and he wrapped them in several layers of silk and satin, and put them away carefully.

Wuyou was incapable of appreciating the aesthetics of the second senior brother, and his father talked the most, dragging the two senior brothers out of the bathroom.

The whole family had a meal.

At the dinner table, Zhuang Fan asked: "Yesterday I smelled, why did you have the air of water on your body, but you ran into the sea?"

Wukong said: "No, Master, those three rhinoceros spirits are really ghosts. I thought, go straight to the Xuanying Cave of Qinglong Mountain to catch them, I thought, let a hole of sleepy bugs go in, and knock them down one by one. Wu Wang and I saw off the horns of the rhinoceros and ran away, and told the little god to capture the little demon, and kept the three hornless rhinoceros, and became a polished general, or it would be over."

Zhuang Fan couldn't help laughing, and said: "This idea sounds good, what happened later."

The monkey took a bite of his meal and said: "As soon as my junior brother and I went out, we were stopped by the little Dharma protectors. They said that the rhinoceros spirit is not easy to mess with. If you really want to take the three of them, you might as well go to the heavenly court to ask for help. "

The monkey spread his hands and said, "They all said that, what can I do, I have to take Wuwang and go to Nantianmen again."

Zhuang Fan smiled and said nothing, and continued to listen to Wukong.

The monkey said: "Hey! Sure enough, when we arrived at Nantian Gate, we saw Taibai Jinxing talking with Zengchang Tianwang and the four spiritual officials of Yin, Zhu, Tao, and Xu. Taibai Jinxing saw me and complained to me. Said that the tiger and leopard I sent were fighting every day without stopping."

Zhuang Fan laughed and said, "Then why did you return?"

Seeing the master asking, Wu Wang poo chi chi chuckled, and Wu Kong chuckled and said, "I'll bow to him and apologize, saying that the old man really shouldn't have tormented him so much, so I dragged him to take the tiger and leopard away." Walk!"

Zhuang Fan laughed and said, "He's ashamed to ask you to take it away, let alone the leopard. Back then, he begged for the tiger himself."

The monkey laughed and said: "Master is right. That old lady probably thought about my old grandson's previous temper, which made me blush. He just waved his hands and said it didn't make sense. Compete with him."

Zhuang Fan nodded, and said: "Well, that's the reason, Taibai Jinxing is a rare good old man."

Monkey laughed and said: "Speaking of soft-hearted good people, Master is the one in a million."

Zhuang Fan tapped his bowl with his chopsticks, and said with a smile, "Spoof. What about later?"

The monkey said: "Afterwards, when I told the purpose of my visit, Taibai gave me an idea, telling me to find Simu Qinxing and catch those three rhinoceros spirits!"
